Yeah that was a pretty good video to get me interested. I want to play this now.

thanks for the erection

Yea they don't look that different, looks great though.

Looks pretty frickin' sweet.

If there's a PC verion, I'm there.

That reminds me that I need to finish the first one.

My expectations are so low for this. Games like this always seem to be lackluster... like the first Mercenaries was. I want to believe.

Looks nice but those QTE's animations are awful.

Looks like fun. Hope it has more 'personality' than the first one.

Also, who the fuck actually likes quick timer events? I mean besides game developers.

FIRE FIRE HE HE KOOL SMASH EM BASH EM CRASH EM !!!!!

i was very excited at first about this game, being a venezuelan, just wanted to see the locations, but this is lame! they just taken assets from different cities and bunched all together... at least in one of the videos they have the maracaibo´s lake bridge.

looks good, except for the fact that it all seems a bit..dry. as in made after a recipe. a bit of free roaming, multiple approaches possible, destructable environmet, all that.

makes me think of just cause. looked cool in the trailers, got boring pretty quick after i started playing it. if there's nothing there to push me through a game, i wont play it just 'cause i can blow up a building or two.

so if everyone's allowed to pick on too human for looking mediocre, i'll pick on this for being a by-the-book shooter that brings nothing new.
probably playable for a couple of hours,though.

loopholezero I think Just Cause borrowed from Mercs than the other way around. Just Cause just forgot to add the fun stuff like destructible envoirnments, air strikes, and fun vehicles, fun shooting mechanics and good pyhsics. The driving in Just Cause is some of the wonkiest for a games thats only a few yesr old. The Helicopter controls were retarded when you compare them to the helicopter controls in Mercs. And while that game map in JC is huge theres not much to it; the sparse cities that do exist are copy-pasta of crappy looking buildings. I almost purchased Just Cause based on the similarities to the original Mercenaries games but luckily I rented it first and saved myself the grief. Just Cause is a just a shell. Its a just another third person sandbox game without fun or soul.

To Mercenaries isn't about bringing something new and exciting. Its making existing concepts as fun as possible. I still play the original Mercs on my 360 despite tons of "next-gen" games being available.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I respect that. These types of games aren't for everyone and maybe you're looking for more original ideas and thats cool. I just think its unfair to compare this to Just Cause when other than the fact that they are both third person sandbox-ish games in a tropical setting, they really aren't in the same league.

If Mercenaries 2 is anything liek the original only bigger with more vehicles, larger maps, more airstrikes, better destructibility and CO-OP then I'll gladly pay the $60 and have confidence it was money well spent since I still visit the original Mercs.

@D-Nez: i haven't played the 1st mercenaries, so i didn't know whether it was better than just cause or not. the empty shell thing is what i had in mind when i compared this to JC. the bad impression that JC left on me has prolly spread to anything that's similar. but if the gameplay in mercs is a bit less repetitive, it might be alright :)

thank god they improved the crap out of this game. i'm so happy they delayed it for good reasons.

graphics look great, but it does look senseless.
